HP-UX Directory Server Version 8.1 (B.08.10.05) Release Notes HP-UX 11i v3 (5900-3100, February 2014)

2 Software requirements addendum
This section lists software requirements that are not documented in HP-UX Directory Server Installation
Guide.
HP-UX Apache-based Web Server
The Administration Server uses the Apache web server v2.0 or v2.2 for its operation. HP
recommends that v2.2 be used because v2.0 will be deprecated for the next release. The following
versions of HP-UX Apache-based Web Server are supported:
• B.2.0.50.01 and higher, except version B.2.0.59.00 (this version contains a known
compatibility problem)
• B.2.2.15.01 and higher
To check the versions of any HP-UX Apache-based Web Server installed on the system, use the
following command:
# /usr/sbin/swlist -l product | grep -e hpuxwsAPACHE -e hpuxws22APACHE
If both v2.0 and v2.2 are installed, then the Administration Server will use v2.2 by default. The
symbolic link /opt/dirsrv/lib/apache controls which version of Apache is in use. For example,
to force the use of Apache v2.0, stop the Administration Server by using the
/opt/dirsrv/sbin/stop-ds-admin command, and then recreate the symbolic link using the
following command:
# ln -sf /opt/hpws/apache /opt/dirsrv/lib
# ln -sf /opt/hpws22/apache /opt/dirsrv/lib
